Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Lulling to Sleep~
Uncle Fu speculated about his thoughts, "I heard your fiancée, Miss An Baoying, is also pregnant. Shouldn’t we send her... some supplements?"
The outside world rumored that An Baoying was his fiancée, but in reality, they hadn’t even set a date for marriage. Now even the servants in the house thought so, which displeased Huo Shaoyan. He extinguished the glowing cigarette butt and looked at Uncle Fu, saying, "You’re good at pretending to offer gifts on someone else’s behalf, aren’t you?"
Uncle Fu: "..."
At this moment, the man stood up from the sofa. His tall and upright figure exuded a strong sense of oppression. He looked down at Uncle Fu for a while and said indifferently, "You’re good at serving your master. An Baoying is pregnant with the Huo Family’s eldest grandson, so it’s not wrong for you to pretend you’re offering gifts on someone else’s behalf."
After pausing, he pointedly added, "From now on, everything the Madam sends to the house should go to An Baoying. As for An Xiaoge, there’s no need to bother with her for now."
So as to avoid spoiling her into becoming a pampered little lady. Huo Shaoyan tossed down those words and went upstairs. After a day of exhaustion, he had no interest in bothering An Ge. Once he returned to the master bedroom, he intended to sleep, but just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Young Master Huo, are you asleep?"
Huo Shaoyan’s footsteps halted by the soft sound of the woman’s voice as he headed towards the bed. He turned, quickly walked to the door, and opened it.
Standing at the entrance of his master bedroom was a petite woman, her height barely reaching his chest. She looked up at him with a pale face covered in cold sweat.
"What is it?"
An Ge, unable to endure the pain anymore, braced herself to come before him. "Could you let the family doctor come see me, please? My... my stomach aches badly."
Huo Shaoyan sneered, "I think you just overate."
An Ge took a deep breath, "Just think of it that way, please?"
"Fine. But, seeing my family doctor is expensive, five thousand yuan per visit. Do you want that?"
An Ge, in unbearable pain and fearing it might be a threatened miscarriage, could only grit her teeth and say, "Yes." After a pause, she asked, "Can I use this month’s five thousand yuan allowance to offset the cost?"
Seeing her pained expression, Huo Shaoyan finally felt quite satisfied. "Okay."
After he agreed, Uncle Zhong, the family doctor, arrived quickly. Uncle Zhong was Mrs. Huo’s personal doctor; in his youth, he had followed Mrs. Huo into battle. His medical skills were superb, especially in traditional Chinese medicine.
After checking her pulse and listening with a stethoscope, Uncle Zhong used silver needles to puncture a few points on An Ge’s hand, saying, "It should be a gas buildup in your intestines caused by eating unclean food. A few needles should do the trick."
Upon hearing this, An Ge let out a long sigh of relief. As long as the baby was safe, she was fine. A quarter of an hour later, after Master Zhong’s acupuncture, An Ge indeed no longer felt abdominal pain, and even her complexion became a bit rosier.
Before leaving, Uncle Zhong advised An Ge, "You have a lot of cold energy in your body. With your constitution, it’s not advisable to be pregnant. You must avoid anything cold or icy, or else miscarriage is a matter of time."
An Ge nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Uncle Zhong."
After Uncle Zhong left, An Ge planned to return to her room. Thinking about spending five thousand yuan on intestinal gas, she reluctantly said to Huo Shaoyan, "Young Master Huo, thank you for calling the doctor. I won’t disturb your rest anymore, good night."
After speaking, as she turned to leave, she was suddenly held by the back of her neck with a large hand. As the man’s palm tightened, the warmth from his palm seeped into her skin, causing her entire body to tense.
An Ge was taken aback for a moment before she forced herself to calm down, "Young Master Huo, what do you mean by this?"
Dragging her by the neck to his large bed, he said, "You disturbed my sleep and caused me to have insomnia. Read me some scriptures!"
Before he finished speaking, he lifted the duvet and lay down on the bed, and a copy of the "Buddhist Scripture Collection" was tossed onto the carpet at her feet.
An Ge: "..."
So because he had insomnia, she was responsible for coaxing him to sleep?
"Hurry up and read."
"If you don’t read well, I’ll bleed you dry."
Resigned, An Ge picked up the thick "Buddhist Scripture Collection" from the floor, then sat cross-legged on the carpet, "Young Master Huo, how long should I read?"
Huo Shaoyan, also tired, closed his eyes, speaking lazily, "Read until I fall asleep." After a pause, he added, "Start from page 231."
